HONOR 600 Series Arrives with Big Power, Smart AI & a Whole New Ecosystem

Malaysia just became the global stage for something pretty exciting. HONOR has officially launched its brand-new HONOR 600 Series here first, and honestly, it’s doing a lot more than just showing off another smartphone.

This launch feels like HONOR is blurring the line between “mid-range” and “flagship” and getting impressively close. And it doesn’t stop at smartphones, as the brand also rolled out a range of new AIoT devices designed for everyday life.

HONOR 600 Series Malaysia: A New “Accessible Flagship” Standard

The HONOR 600 Series introduces a fresh take on what an accessible flagship smartphone in Malaysia should look like. With pricing starting from RM2,599, it targets users who want premium features like advanced cameras, AI tools, and long battery life without jumping into ultra-premium price territory.

Available in both Pro and standard variants, the lineup is designed to cater to different user needs while maintaining a strong focus on performance, durability, and everyday usability.

200MP Camera & 120x Zoom: A Big Leap in Mobile Photography

Photography is clearly a major focus here. The series is equipped with a 200MP main camera, supported by a large sensor designed to capture more detail and better low-light shots.

The Pro model steps things up with:

  • A 50MP telephoto lens
  • Up to 120x zoom
  • Advanced image stabilisation for clearer long-distance shots

Meanwhile, the standard version still offers up to 30x zoom, making it versatile enough for everyday users.

Low-light photography also gets a boost thanks to a dedicated night engine that helps maintain natural colours and avoids blown-out highlights, something many smartphones still struggle with.

AI Image to Video 2.0: Turning Photos Into Motion

One of the standout features is HONOR’s upgraded AI Image to Video 2.0, which introduces a more creative approach to content creation.

Instead of just editing photos, users can now:

  • Combine multiple images into short video clips
  • Use simple text prompts to guide storytelling
  • Apply cinematic templates with built-in effects

It’s essentially bringing generative AI into mobile creativity, making it easier to produce social-ready content without needing third-party apps.

Performance That Finally Feels Flagship-Level

For the first time in this series, the Pro model is powered by a Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, delivering a noticeable jump in performance. Expect smoother multitasking, faster app launches, and better gaming stability.

The standard model runs on the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4, which still offers solid improvements for daily use and mobile gaming.

In short:

  • Pro = flagship-level power
  • Standard = strong, reliable performance for most users

Battery Life That Actually Lasts

Battery anxiety might finally be a thing of the past here. With a 7,000mAh silicon-carbon battery, the HONOR 600 Series is built for extended use whether that’s gaming, streaming, or heavy multitasking.

Charging features include:

  • 80W fast wired charging
  • 50W wireless charging (Pro model)
  • Reverse charging support

It’s a setup designed not just for longevity, but also convenience.

A Display Built for Bright Environments

The 6.57-inch display on the HONOR 600 Series reaches up to 8,000 nits peak brightness, which is especially useful under Malaysia’s intense sunlight.

Other highlights include:

  • 120Hz refresh rate for smoother scrolling
  • Eye comfort features to reduce strain
  • Enhanced visibility outdoors

This isn’t just about brightness, it’s about usability in real-world conditions.

Built Tough for Everyday Life

Durability is another area where HONOR is making a strong statement. The series comes with:

  • IP68 and IP69 ratings for water and dust resistance
  • SGS 5-star drop certification

This means better protection against spills, dust, and accidental drops, something that matters more than ever in daily use.

HONOR 600 Price Malaysia & Pre-Order Deals

The HONOR 600 Series will be offered in three stylish colour options; Orange, Golden White, and Black giving users a choice between bold and classic looks. 

In Malaysia, the HONOR 600 Pro is priced at RM3,099 for the 12GB + 256GB variant and RM3,299 for the 512GB version, while the HONOR 600 (12GB + 512GB) comes in at RM2,599. The devices are set to hit shelves nationwide starting 30 April 2026.

HONOR Pad X8b LTE: An Affordable Tablet Built for the Whole Family

The standout addition is the HONOR Pad X8b LTE, a budget-friendly tablet that balances performance, battery life, and usability especially for households with multiple users.

Unlike many entry-level tablets, this one comes with LTE connectivity, which means you’re not tied to Wi-Fi. Whether it’s online classes, work emails, or streaming, it stays connected wherever you go.

Key highlights:

  • Large 10,100mAh battery for all-day usage
  • Up to 256GB storage + expandable up to 2TB
  • 11-inch Eye Comfort display with reduced eye strain features
  • Durability certification for better drop resistance

From kids attending virtual classes to parents handling work and winding down with Netflix, the tablet is clearly designed to handle shared usage without compromise.

Pricing in Malaysia:

  • 128GB model: RM799 (with free flip cover)
  • 256GB model: RM999 (with free keyboard)

At this price point, it’s positioned as one of the more practical budget tablets in Malaysia with LTE especially for families.

HONOR MouseBuds Pro: A Truly Unique 2-in-1 Gadget

HONOR also introduced something quite unconventional, the MouseBuds Pro, a hybrid device that combines a wireless mouse with built-in earbuds.

Yes, it sounds unusual but it actually makes sense for people who are always on the go.

Instead of carrying separate devices, you get:

  • A compact mouse for work
  • Built-in earbuds for calls and music
  • Dual connectivity for laptop and smartphone

It’s clearly targeted at digital nomads, students, and remote workers who want to travel light without sacrificing functionality.

New HONOR Earbuds: Options for Every Lifestyle

HONOR is also expanding its audio lineup with multiple earbuds tailored to different users:

  • HONOR Earbuds 4
    Ideal for professionals, featuring strong active noise cancellation and long battery life for work and travel.
  • HONOR CHOICE Earbuds Clip 2 Pro
    Designed with an open-ear concept for comfort, perfect if you prefer awareness of your surroundings while listening.
  • HONOR Earbuds A Pro
    A more affordable option with powerful sound, targeting younger users and casual listeners.

This tiered approach makes it easier to choose based on lifestyle instead of just price.

Smartwatches for Fitness, Lifestyle & Everyday Use

HONOR didn’t stop at audio. They also introduced new smartwatches catering to different needs:

  • HONOR CHOICE Watch 2 Pro
    Built for fitness enthusiasts with precise tracking and outdoor features.
  • HONOR CHOICE Watch 2 Epic
    A more lifestyle-focused smartwatch with interchangeable styles for work and sports.
  • HONOR Watch X5i
    A lightweight, entry-level smartwatch aimed at students and younger users.

Each model focuses on practical daily use whether it’s tracking workouts, managing notifications, or staying organised.

So… What’s the Big Picture?

This launch isn’t just about one phone. It’s HONOR building a full ecosystem.

From smartphones to tablets, wearables, and audio gear, everything is designed to work together and make daily life smoother.
